Trusted Double Glazing in Glasgow
Save on your heating bills and feel snug on those frosty mornings. Double glazing ensures your house stays warm, cosy and energy-efficient.
You’ll hear many terms as we describe your new windows and doors, including A-rated windows (for energy efficiency), double glazing (for better insulation) and uPVC (low-maintenance frames).
Our company installs double glazing in Glasgow and its surrounding areas to the highest standards. We can evidence each specification and even evidence the glass in your installation.
We assess the effectiveness of our A-rated double glazing in U-value. This is the same language used in the Scottish Building Regulations.
Our range of high-performance, low-emissivity (Low-E) glass incorporates the most recent thermally insulating glass coating technology advancements. The microscopically thin coating effectively reflects long-wave heat radiation into a room. This minimises heat loss through units while maximising natural light and the retention of solar heat.
About Double Glazing
Double glazing comprises two panes of glass separated by a gap of air or an inert gas like Argon. The gap is an insulating layer, reducing heat loss and making the unit more energy-efficient.
We can install our double glazing, which is 28mm thick, within a huge range of windows. This includes casement, tilt and turn windows or sliding sash frames. Double glazing is also suitable for composite, uPVC sliding patios and French doors.
Benefits of New Double-Glazed Windows
As the leading double-glazing installers in Central and West Scotland, we have witnessed firsthand the many advantages of this technology. Here are the key benefits of double glazing.
Improved Energy Efficiency & Lower Utility Bills
Our expert double-glazed window installers will fit a system that can help reduce bills by improving your home’s energy efficiency. With their low U-value, our windows minimise heat transfer, creating an outstanding thermal barrier. The insulating layer helps to reduce heat loss, meaning less energy is required to heat the home in winter.
Increased Security
Our full window replacement solutions prioritise security with multiple layers of protection. The solid construction forms a strong, unified barrier to prevent forced entry. Visible security features are also a strong deterrent, as intruders often target easier entry points.
Improved Comfort
Double glazing helps to reduce condensation, making the home more comfortable. The consistent temperature throughout your living space eliminates cold spots and drafts, creating a more pleasant environment year-round.
Meet UK Building Regulations
Our double-glazed windows improve the energy performance of a dwelling in line with the latest UK building regulations. We consider all factors and ensure your house is compliant while reducing your carbon footprint.
Reduced Noise Pollution
Double-glazing can help reduce noise pollution from outside the home. The gap between the two panes of glass acts as a thermal barrier, helping to reduce the transfer of sound waves. The sound-dampening effects work both ways, granting you and your neighbours more peace and privacy.
Increased Property Value
Double glazing can increase a property’s value, as its cost-cutting benefits are desirable for many potential buyers. Our range of styles will add value, security and character to your house.
